W ELL PROVIDRD ROBBERS.—On Tue s d ay , G eorge Law (the man who was indicted but acquitted at the last Sessions for the robbery of the house of Mr. Drabble, of Attercliffe), John Harrison, and John Williams, were charged with tho robbery of the house of Mr. Childs, farmer, of Nether Thorpe, in formidable stock saw Were exhibited an in the parish of ThorpieemSenaltvsii:v.e ever r e of housebreaking implements made of bright t el l the table. There was b a jemmy means of which it miglit ee be h u a . s v e i d ng a a s screw in the centre, 3 7 one or two instruments, as occasion required; iackvloacTsty of brace bits; a chisel; of eighteen or twenty coastruction : a dark p hilter of every variety . pistol loaded with ball, besides powder and bullets,na lucifer matches , a nd caps of black crape to cover the faces of the thieves whenever occasion should requi re the dis guise. Mrs. Childs stated that to Sheffield, and in the afternoon she fastened up the house and went to the field about half a mile off to I harvest p eo ple. About four o'clock, as she was returning company with her son, she saw a strange man walking hi about in out in the lane in front of the house. She also saw that the staircase window was open, and another man was in the cour t-yard. i The man a the lane observilhteor,tbreanstaienkto. the stack-yard, and when Mrs. Childs yard gate four mmrs. ?" Mrs. Child s found en ran out, and ono of them in Childs' bonnet, and asked, passing, put his face within tbe ~k itH o ba e v e e you any shearing tole t door open, and on entering the house, found that it had been ransacked. She called out of the window to her son, who pursued the men, but lost sight of them. Up stairs all the drawers had been broken open, the marks corre sponding exactly with the ends of the jemmy produced, and from a small wooden box, in one of the drawers, was stolen 8 sovereigns and 4 half sovereigns, which Mr. Childs had left for the payment of wages. A few old coins and two old brooches were also stolen. Mr. Childs came home soon after, and went in pursuit of the thieves. Within a couple of hours the three prisoners were brought to the house, and Mrs. Childs identified them all as being three of the four men who ran past her. Law was the man who shouted in her face. Joseph Childs, jun., confirmed the evidence of his mother, and also spoke to the identity of the prisoners. The four men who ran out of the stack-yard were joined by a fifth man out of the court yard. The men had no sickles with them. Mr. Childs deposed, that arriving at home soon afterwards, and being informed of the robbery, he immediately galloped off in the direction the men had taken, and gave the alarm to all th e persons at work in the fields, so that in a little time there were several hundred persons in pursuit. They suspected that the thieves had taken refuge in a wood near Sevenoaks, which they surrounded. One man was going quietly along the side of the wood, when he heard a slight noise, followed by the words, " Whist 1 I hear a foot 1 " Immediately after three men bolted out of the wood, and at tempted to take shelter in an adjoining quarry. Mr. Childs at the moment came up, and two of the men were taken, but a third escaped. The two were Williams and Harrison. Law was taken by a man named Poulgcr. Upon Law was found a sovereign and two half-sovereigns. On one of the latter several letters wore stamped, and Mr. Childs could swear to it as one of those stolen. Upon Williams were found some powder, balls, percussion caps, and lucifer matches. He said he took the powder in treacle, as a medicine for the worms. In the wood near where they were taken one of the black crape caps produced, lying near a bush, directed atte n t ion to it, and there were f ound th picklocks, chisels, pistol , &c. The hat of one of th e men who escapedwas taken. The evidence not being complet e , the prisoners were remanded to Frida y . Mr. Alderson expressed great satisfaction at the capture of so dangerous a gang. THE WELL PROVIDED Roanaas.—Law, Harrison, and Wil liams, who were remanded on Tuesday, were again brought up. The prisoners denied the charge brought against them , Mr. Aeneasoe h a d b een upon the bench for more than twenty, and Mr. PARKER for more than thirty yea's, but they had never before seen such implements as those then before them. Considering the nature of the case, they felt bound to com mit the prisoners to take their trial at the Assizes at York. PRICE sd. IMPROVEMENTS on the CHESHIRE SHORE. Amongst the collateral consequences of the remarkable prosperity of Liverpool has been the rise of the dependent villages and rural populations in the vicinity. We have frequently bad occasion to notice the great improvements taking place on the Cheshire side of the river, and the ra pid increase in the number of buildings and inhabitants : but, without depreciating the advantages of other localities, it must be admitted that Birkenhead has progressed at a ratio which: leaves all; its: competitors immeasurably be hind. In 1818 that township contained, with the excep tion of the Ferry-house, the Priory, and a few straggling cottages, only three houses, and the population did not ex ceed 50. In 1821 the population was only 200 ;in 1831 it had risen to 2,569, and it is now upwards of 6,200. During the last fifteen years nearly 800 houses have been erected, including a great number' of beautiful villas, be sides numerous places of worship and, other buildings, at a expense altogether of not less than 200,0001. One of the most important improvements has been the erection of a Town-hall, for magisterial and parochial purposes, com prehending likewise a prison and a public market ; on which nearly 4,0001. has been expended. Extraordinary, however, as this appears, as Liverpool is still extending her boundaries en every side, and still making daily advances in commerce and wealth, we have reason to expect that a corresponding impulse will be felt, and that public prospe rity and improvement will go forward with a rapidity and _ . _ to an extent of which we have hitherto had no experience. The prospect of the rail-road being shortly brought into operation, opening up a communication from the heart of an important district to the metropolis of the empire —the judicious parochial arrangements now making—the number' of public and private buildings rocently completed, or now in course of construction, (including the north side of the square,) and the extensive preparatory processes going on, such as quarrying and brick-making—with other indications of a fast-thriving community, all tend to suggest and con firm the idea, that this side of the water must shortly.be covered with a new town, of which the present erections, extending from Wallasey-pool as far as Tranmere-pool and Birkenhead to the south, a distance of not less than three quarters of a mile, do but form the nucleus. Consequent upon the increased transit arising out of the growth and relative position of Liverpool and the opposite shore, and one of its most beneficial results, is the improve ment in the mode of embarking and landing passengers. The former mode was both dangerous and inconvenient. It was disgraceful to the town, and would scarcely have been otherwise than disgraceful had it been practised on the Volga or the Niger, instead of on the Mersey. An excellent landing-slip, on a peculiar principle, is now in use, having been found, after a trial of twelve months, and ex po Sure to every description of weather, admirably efficient for its purpose. Twice only has it been swamped during heavy storms, but was raised in each instance the next tide ; and having undergone some alteration, it is consi dered secure against any similar accident for the future. The plan of the landing-slip is that of a flat-bottomed vessel, with a projecting gangway, which, when not in use, lifts up in the manner of a draw-bridge. In practice, pas sage-boats are laid along the outer side of the vessel, and traversing the deck, reach the gang-way which conducts them to the shore. A landing is thus ordinarily effected with perfect ease and safety. _ It - would, perhaps, have been more eligible for the pur pose for which it is intended, had the gangway been raised about two feet higher, when, on the event of a storm, the water would have been less liable to sweep over the deck. The plan is, however, a proud triumph over all previous projects which have either been thought of or tried, to effect a safe and easy mode of passing to and from the passage boat at low water. The time is, however, fast approaching when another landing-bridge will he found absolutely ne cessary ; the one now in . use is not sufficient for the quan tity of business arising from the number of boats which are occasionally moored to it, for the double purpose of landing and embarkation. It is not uncommon to see seven; ten, and sometimes a dozen steamers dependent upon'it for con nexion with the shore, when collisions between individuals, and hampers, baskets, Etc., - not only frightful but dangerous.—Li.ierpool Courier. STRANGERS IN LIVERPOOL.—We cannot call to mind any former period during which the town contained so many strangers as it does at present. All the hotels- and principal inns are crowded with company, and many of the houses are unable to accommodate all who apply. This in flux has doubtless been caused in a great measure by the open ing of the entire line of railway between London and Liverpool, by the continuance of the present remarkably fine weather, and by the various modes of transit from this town to the Lakes, North Wales, the Isle of Man, Ireland, Scotland, There is no setting bounds to the moral revolution which railway travelling will have on the aspezt of society. The [resent week has afforded us a sample of what is still in perspective. —Liverpool Chronicle. WAGERS.—The town of Charleroi has lately been noted for its extraordinary wagers. Mr. S. undertook to run over 30 miles of country whilst a snail was getting through 10 inches of grated sugar. The same Mr. S. bet be would stay longer in the river Sambre than another gentleman. After having been in the water six hours, Mr. S. sent for his night-cap, declaring he would not come out till the next day, upon which his antagonist declared himself beaten.— Mirror. Last week a little girl, named Hannah Sheets, fell head-foremost into a butt of rain water, which stood open in the back yard of the house where her parents resided, in Castle street, Golden-square. It is not exactly known how long she lay there, for she was not immediately missed, and even then an anxious search of many minutes was made through the house and the streets adjacent ere the water-butt was thought of. When dragged out she was quite cold, and all the usual remedies were tried for a length of time by Surgeon W. B. Parkes, of Carnaby-street, without success. Amongst the rest, attempts to inflate the lungs were unremittingly perse vered in for a considerable time. As a last resource, Mr. Parkes applied the stimulus of electricity. He first passed shocks gently through the head and chest, along the course of the spine, gradually increasing their power, and persevering during the whole time (by means of- other assistance) in the inflation of the lungs. After these means had been employed conjointly for about ten minutes, faint traces of respiration were observed, and in three-quarters of an hour he had the pleasure to behold his patient in a fair way of recovery. The child is now in the enjoyment of perfect health. It having been perceived, not long since, that the claws of a lioness, in the Garden of Plants, were growing into the paws, and would in time injure the animal, one of her keepers contrived to have her firmly secured, and with scissars and file, cut and paired them so as to prevent the apprehended evil. The animal, however, hasproved that she does not forget the insult, for whenever the keeper now comes within her sight, she at once distinguishes him even when surrounded by a crowd of her visititors, growls, shows her teeth, lashes her sides with her tail, and displays every sign of an implacable resentment. A SCENE IN COURT.—" I call upon you," said the counsellor, "to state distinctly upon what authority are you prepared to swear to the mare's age ?" " Upon what authority ?" said the hostler interrogatively. " You are to re ply and not repeat the questions put you." " I doesn't con sider a man's bound to answer a question afore he's time to turn it in his mind." " Nothing can be more simple, Sir, than the question put. I again repeat it. Upon what authority do you swear to the animal's age ?" " The best authority," responded the witness gruffly. " Then why such evasion? Why not state it at once ?" " Well, then, if you must have it—" " Must ! I will have it," vociferated the counsellor, in terrupting the witness. " Well, then, if you m us t and will have it," rejoined the ostler with imperturbable gravity, ,s w hy, then, I had it myself from the mare's mouth." A simul taneous burst of laughter rang through the Court. The judge on the bench could with dif f iculty confine hi; risible muscles to judicial decorum. —Captain Glascock's Land Sharks and Sea Gulls. On Tuesday an inquest was held on the body of a child belonging to Jane and Daniel Whittle, who live near the Dog and Gun public-house, West Derby. The child in question had been playing in the garden of its parents, in which there was a ditch about two feet deep and a plank across it, used for draining the garden. The chili fell off the plank into the ditch, and got something into its eye, which caused it to bleed profusely. It was picked up and taken to a surgeon, but died on the way. From a post mortem examination of the body by Mr. James Cooper, a surgeon, it appeared that something had passed between the upper part of the eye and the socket, extending to the posterior part of the socket, at which point there was a fracture of the bone, and a punctured wound of the brain, which was the cause of death. The deceased bad fallen on something containing an old nail, or some hard sharp-pointed substance. Verdict-- " Accidental death." —Liverpool Chronicle. Died at the Union Workhouse, Barham, a few days since, Elizabeth Gates, aged 80. She was one of the first paupers admitted into the workhouse when it was formed in 1766, and continued to reside there until her death.— Suffolk Herald.

Liverpool Mercury. ALLOWANC TO WITNESSES AT THE CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. For several sessions past considerable discussion has taken place and some discontent been manifested, relative to the amount allowed to persons who are bound ovet to give evi dence. The Magistrates have, therefore, drawn up the fol lowing regulations relative to costs and expenses to be paid in cases of criminal prosecutions, which have been approved and signed by the Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench I. All prosecutors and witnesses for the prosecution, at tending the Court under recognizances or subpcena, in cases of felony and misdemeanor, as provided by the statute 7th Geo. IV., cap. 64 (except those hereafter mentioned), are to be allowed 3s. 6d. a day and no more. 2. All prosecutors and witnesses attending the Court as above, whose usual place of abode is distant more than five miles from the Court, are to be allowed threepence a mile each way for travelling expenses travelling to and returning from such Court, and the like 3s. 6d. per day. 3. All prosecutors and witnesses attending the Court as above, whose usual place of abode is distant more than five miles, and who are necessarily detained in London more than one day, are to be allowed the further sum of is. 6d., and no more, for eaph night they may necessarily be so detained in London. 4. Medical men, bound in recognizance or subpoan2, and attending professionally, are to be allowed the suns of guinea per day, and no more. 5. All prosecutors and witnesses attending as above, who receive wages or salaries, arc to be allowed Is. 6d. per day, and no more , for their attendance at the Cou r t an d before the committing Magistrate. 6. All children under fourteen years of age, attending as above are to be allowed one-half of the above sums for their attendance at the Court. 7. No prosecutor or witness is to be allowed for his attend ance before the committing Magistrate, unless he shall re ceive a certificate from such Magistrate ; in which case the amount shall be ascertained by the certificate of such agistrate. 8. No witness is to be allowed his expenses upon more than one prosecution, on any one day, although he may be witness upon several, unless for his attendance before the committing Magistrate, and for which he may have received his certificate. 9. One Counsel and brief only are to be allowed for, on each prosecution, unless specially ordered by the Court. Jo. The fee for Counsel and brief not to be allowed in any case where the prisoner has confessed the offence alleged against him before the committing Magistrate, unless specially ordered by the Court. 11. Tile fee to Counsel in other cases is to vary from one to two guineas, and in no case to exceed the latter sum unless under the special order of the Court. 12. The . allowance to the attorney shall, for the prosecu tion, the brief, and attendances not exceed one guinea, unless an addition should be specially ordered by the Court. 13. The above scale is to be strictly acted upon, unless the Court shall, from the special circumstances of the case, direct any further or extra allowance. In the exercise of its discretionary power the Court at the last Session, expressed its intention in future to call absent prosecutors and witnesses on their recognizance or subpcens, who shall not answer when the respective trial in which they are engaged shall be called on, and the same declared to be estreated and forfeited. That in order to remove such estreat such absentee shall make affidavit of the cause of his or her absence, and move the same by Counsel, and that such affidavit be filed with the re cords of the Court. That in such cases where the estreat shall be taken off, such persons shall be d!sellowed the fees for attendance, but they may receive such moneys as they may have actually paid in order to forward the prosecution. These rules have long appeared necessary, inasmuch as fre quent delays have taken place and the acquittal of prisoners in consequence of the culpable absence of witnesses. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF ABDUCTION. DUBLIN POLICE, SEPT. 22. ARRAN- QUAY-OFFICE.—A person of unusually mean and vulgar appearance, named Peter Yore, a stable-boy, was brought up in custcdy, charged with having fraudulently in duced a young lady, the daughter of his mistress, to marry him. Mr. M‘DoNocou, on the part of the prosecution, required that the prisoner should be committed for trial, or, as the charge amounted only to a misdemeanour, aggravated by pe culiar circumstances, that he should be held to bail to take his trial in the Court of Queen's Bench. Counsel then proceeded to state the facts a the case. He said his client was the widow of Colorel Tucker, and was entitled to upwards of 700/. a year, reserved under the provisions of a settlement executed before her marriage. Colonel Tucker died in the year 1831, leaving an only child, a daughter, in whom, by the settlement before-mentioned, th?. property was was vested in remainder. Mrs. Tucker unfortunately took ir,ta her service the man at the bar ; he, as be was riding after the young lady, thought proper to make approaches to her, and urged proposals of marriage, threatening, that if she would not consent, be would leave the place and spread rumours inju rious to her character. She in an evil hour, of her own consent, agreed to a stratagem and a scheme that was well laid, with the assistance of other individuals. The pri soner having made some apology about shoeing a horse, went and met the young lady at a public-house kept by a person named Flood; she then alighted from her horse, and, taking off her riding habit, put on some attire suited to the celebration of marriage. Here the poor child, for she was little more than 17, burst into tears, and a woman, one of the party, was brought into comfort her. At length, from shame and inability to draw back, she consented to go into a covered car, and was driven to the house of a person named Schultz, in Cullenswood; he either was not at home, or, fearing that there was something wrong in the matter, would not porform the ceremony ; they then urged her to go to Smithfield, which she did, and a matrimonial ceremony was performed bra public-house; she then returned to the other public-house, resumed her riding habit, and returned home by the Circular-road ; on the way her attendant got off his horse, soiled his hat, coat, and trousers, and told her mother that a fall was the cause of their delay. It would appear that the young woman had never passed a night out of her mother's bed chamber. At length the girl became shocked at the idea of throwing herself away upon such a fellow. Something ex citing her mother's suspicions, she taxed him with it. The prisoner at once avowed it, took a high tone, and asked them would they break the marriage. The mother was advised to ~annul the marriage, and accordingly that course was being pur sued in the Ecclesiastical Courts. After the prisoner was dismissed, he was found still lurking about the place, with a view to carry her off. It therefore became absolutely neces sary to vindicate the law, that the young lady's respectable connexions might not be disgraced and herself carried away from her mother. Counsel then referred to the law applica, b!e to the case.. To his (Mr. M'Donough's) astonishment, he understood that Mr. Costello had stated on the previous day that there were a number of cases to show that the young girl herself was not a competent witness. He (Mr. M'Do nough) would demonstrate that it was settled law that she was. Mr." COSTELLO then proceeded to reply on the part of the prisoner, and stated that he and Mr. M'Donough were at issue upon the fact whether the young lady could be a competent witness, supposing a marriage with her consent had taken place. -- It was admitted, and if not admitted he was ready to prove, that the marriage was with her consent, and even at her solicitation ; that she suggested the change of dress, the very colour of the clothes, and the story w hich was told to her mother ; it was admitted that the marriage was with her con sent, and it was a general principle of law that the wife cannot be evidence against the husband, or the husband against the wife. To that principle there were exceptions from necessity. Mr. STUDDERT said it was enough for them, sitting as Ma gisstrates, to look if they had sufficient facts before them to justify them in sending the case for trial : it was their im pression that they had : they had therefore taken informa tions, and issued a warrant. The only question now was as to the bail. Messrs. Flood and Took, publicans, were then agreed to as bail for the prisoner, each in lOW., and P. Flood, J. Flood, T. Flood, Mary Meehan, and Ame Yore, were noticed to come in and give their own recognizances to stand their trial for conspiring and aiding Peter Yore to commit a misdemeanour, v. ith which he is charged. NEW PIER.—A new pier has been erected at Bank side, upon the Surrey side of Southwark Bridge, for the con venience of those passengers who wish either to go up or down the river in steam-boats. Arrangements are also in progress ith the directors of some of the Gravesend steam-boats to embark and disembark passengers at this pier, which will, no doubt, be a great convenience to that portion of the public re sident in the borough of Southwark and its neighbourhood. The pier is to be opened on Monday next. A FRIGHTENED LION.—A B osch man was, on one occasion, following a troop of zebras, and had just suc ceeded in wounding one with his arrows, when a lion sprang out from a thicket opposite, and showed every inclination to dispute the prize with him. The Boscbman being near a convenient tree, threw down his arms, and climbed for safety to an upper branch. The lion, allowing the wounded zebra to pass on, now turned his whole attention towards the Bosch man, and walking t ree , round and round the he ever and anon growled and looked up at the Boseliman. At length the lion lay down at the foot of the tree, and kept watch all night. Towards morning sleep overcame the hitherto wakeful Bosch man,_, and he dreamed that h e h a d f a ll en i nto the lion ' s mouth and n out d . starting from the eff e cts o f hi s d ream , h e lost _ his th e 'seat, on falling from the branch, h e a li g ht e d h e avily n which the monster, thus unexp e ctedly salute • .4 heelss r in a ran off witdhifa f l c o r u e d n roar oar direction,; a nd the ret ß ur o n s e e d h m i n a 1t safety also aontlioils parents.

The system upon which this is conducted precludes the powsibility of competition for cheapness, quality, and durability, as not any house in London can manufacture at these prices. The Society wishes it to be thorougly understood, that they do not receive hawked or other goods for sale, like the bazaars and haberdashers • but they make every article themselves, which ena bl e them confidently to warrant their goods of the very best materials. If any fault appear it will be made good, free of all charge for twelve months.
